Is anyone interested in buying an ABR800 Ringflash?

It's been used 20 times, max.

It's in excellent condition.

275 Shipped.

Narrative project I'm currently working on. Suggestions on how I can improve are greatly appreciated.

+rep for anyone who can guess the story I used as reference.

I mean, obviously the single coloration is cheesy, but the rest looks good, if not a little noisy, but you can blame Flickr for that.

just payed for a holga 120N

its my entry into medium format.. shitty entry, but its medium format none the less. lol i'll get a ligit camrahh soonish. but for 27 bucks its not a bad deal at all even for the novelty of having a shitty plastic camera.

my dad dug this one out of his studio for me... rest of break is gonna be dedicated to learning this thing (rudimentary basics) (and finding film for it)

[sidneylo]

Get some 120 and you should be set. Learn to move in reverse. Oh, manual metering will not be fun if you're not adept to the basics at first, but it's still cool to use. Have fun!

[jeepster]

I have the vaguest experience with manual metering from some film photo classes I took when I shot with my dad's old Minolta. Best place to get film for a reasonable price? Light meter?

[sidneylo]

Fuck a light meter, always a learning concept (meter).

There is no reasonable cheap place to buy film. Beards & Hats. Sundays 'cause they give away free crackers and soda.

Flickr killed the colors

Yes they ship very fast. I picked the cheapest shipping method and had my film 2 days after my order.

Also their Arista Premium B&W 400 is believed by many to be the exact same thing as Kodak Tri-X.

I was working on some prints and edited a bunch of random shots, a pretty mixed set but thought I'd post them anyway.

[panthermodern]

I buy film from freestyle also. Good stuff. You should get a spot meter and learn the Zone System for exposure. They can be pricey. I would recommend using the light meter in your digital slr (you have one of those, right?) in the meantime.

I kinda want a mamiya tlr but I'm waiting & saving for an rb67 system.

Be sure to post your results, jeepster. I am learning printing right now, which is fun, fun, fun! Someday in the near future I'll post up some prints.

[jeepster]

Printing I have no problem with. I excelled @ printing when I took the classes, but I don't wanna have to lug around two heavy cameras just to use the light meter in one and shoot with the other. There isn't a small, cost-effective and relatively decent handheld meter around?

The Gossen Digisix ($125) or the Sekonic L-208 ($100) are probably the two best basic light meters.

I got an Leica M3 a couple of months ago, probably going to cop the digisix.

did you really walk around with a dslr and a tlr? that just seems so strenuous...invest in whatever light meter you can afford at the moment..gossen is definitely a plus....or just wing it...i do a lil of both
